Getting you ready for ripoff Britain. Where money is plenty, and taste is absent

Harsh (but maybe true )

Chaser you are going to need counselling after this trip. Ian the builder will be so proud of you spending some money.

You did have whipped cream. If you will drink disgusting things in a ripoff chain then that’s what you pay

 

[steve69]

2 pints of Stella and one portion of chips to share......£40

That was in Singapore though...

 

[movan]

Oh chaser. That's more than five weeks rent at a £1 week if you'd have agreed to let me rent your shed. .

Yorkshire war cry

I actually said bloody hell when I gave her a tenner and she said that's not enough, don't know if she realised what I said but didn't blink an eye as she sat there with her hand out.

I would have turned around and brewed up in the van….

Some people just never learn how to manage money.

It's even taught in school these days

When you visit any town is the UK the most popular shops are coffee and pizza outlets.Could it relate to that both coffee and pizza sales carry very high profit margins ?

Not just the UK, overpriced takeaway coffee is popular everywhere these days .

Folk have too much disposable income


Same with bottled water.

Thing is though I have never been in any coffee place before, as it's something I can well manage without, and I can gaurantee I shall probably never be in one again.
I seriously looked at the till and saw 5 euros come up and I thought that's bloody dear even when thinking it was for two nevermind one.

Not as much of a laugh as we had at the P&J in Aberdeen on Saturday night. Went to see Kevin Bridges, whilst killing time waiting to go in we waited beside the sweet stall and watched the faces of people discovering they'd paid on average between £15 & £30 for a bag of pick and mix! Worst one we personally saw was someone charged over £50! £2.99 per 100g and concession taking full advantage of folks having no idea 100g of pick and mix barely covers the bottom of the bags provided. We limited ourselves to £7.50 for a beer and another £4.50 for a small bottle of orange! Wouldn't have been so bad but Kevin's nowehere near as funny as he used to be That pick and mix stall tho.....what a hoot
